“college” being a thing you go to after school, not during it

"college" being a thing were you play sports more than learn at a higher level

and wear aforementioned jumpers with one giant letter on them

School/college sports teams being somehow of interest to more than just the people in the teams.

What if it takes you a year and a half to get your first year hours in? You can't be a "first-year" student if you've been at college for two years.

you can if you're doing all first-year subjects

You're a first year if you're doing first year

XP see

it's like when someone is born on Feb 29 and they can celebrate their 2nd birthday when they're 6 years old.

make that 8 years old. this math stuff is hard.

They'd be a real asshole of an 8 year old but that in itself is not uncommon I spose

Also there's none of this "getting the hours in", the uni chucks all the students out by May so they can rent out the facilities to businesses until October

also, iirc there's no single word in american that covers this scenario anyway. i've never heard of anyone who's still doing first-year subjects in their second year of enrolment saying e.g. "i'm a trinitron"

Third trimester eh

the american terms refer to years spent there, not level of courses taken

Ya it's a bad term

seems odd to measure progress by how many years you've been on the campus, not how much of the course you've completed

I mean, you all are the ones who would break an ankle by jumping out of a "first" story window, not me.
